post-run cuddle

I snapped these pictures this morning while cuddling with a freshly-woken Scarlett after my morning run. She crawled up onto my lap, insisting "Car-yett is big girl! Car-yett Yif-ett is big girl!" in retaliation to an insult, I'm sure. I was all sweaty and zitty, she was goobery and covered in glitter from a heavy application of lipgloss the night before, but it was such a simple moment that I couldn't help but share.

ps-yes, that is a 3-6 mo binky in her mouth and no, she was not allowed to have it.

Those cuddly moments are simply priceless. And way to far in between when they get bigger. And good job on the running... I dream of being a runner but HATE IT!!!

Love my big-girl niece-y. She IS so big. She is one beautiful doll! Hugs and kisses from the missing Auntie!!

PS the kiddies and I heard "sweet caroline" while we were at the park and someone was having a party at the next pavilion over. I thought of all of you and smiled!

Cute Pics.

Whitney, I cant believe how gorg you look after a run. I sweat like a donkey (i'd say pig...but they don't sweat?!?) when I run...seriously, my hair looks like I just took a shower (but it's sweat, you wanted to know this.)

Our kiddos grow up too fast huh. Soak up these snuggle moments Mama, cause they're on to other things before we know it.

Dear Whitney-
I apologize for my lack of commenting as of late...I have no excuse. But I will be working on rectifying the situation.

I still love you and your family, and your blog...which I do read.

Love-

Zach
